Roy has not played in over a week because of a lower-body injury, but will be a game-time decision to return to Washington's lineup on Monday against the New York Islanders. The 30-year-old Roy is averaging 20:46 time-on-ice and has 14 points (1G / 13A) in 53 games this season.
Fehervary did not play on Saturday due to personal reasons, but he returned to practice on Monday and should be in the lineup against the New York Islanders. The 26-year-old Slovak defenseman is quietly having an impressive season, pacing for career-high production with 19 points (3G / 16A) through 55 games.
Lindgren seemingly suffered an injury toward the end of overtime, but stayed in the crease for the shootout, ultimately needing assistance leaving the ice after recording the victory. Already without Logan Thompson (upper body), who is day-to-day, it is unclear who will be tending the twine for the Capitals on Saturday against the Carolina Hurricanes.
Already without top-six forwards Robert Thomas (lower body) and Dylan Holloway (ankle), the Blues' injury woes worsened in Tuesday's game against the Dallas Stars, with Jordan Kyrou (upper body) and Jake Neighbours (lower body) both exiting the game early. Luckily for the Blues, both Kyrou and Neighbours are healthy enough to return on Thursday against the Florida Panthers. The 27-year-old Kyrou has had a disappointing season, with only 24 points (11G / 13A) through 43 games. Over his previous four seasons, Kyrou was nearly a point-per-game player, with 285 points in 317 games (0.9 PTS/GP).
McIlrath will immediately fall back out of the Capitals lineup after drawing in on Tuesday. Rasmus Sandin is returning from a lower-body injury and will take McIlrath's spot in the lineup.
Sandin did not play on Tuesday because of a lower-body injury but appears to be good to go for Thursday's game against the Detroit Red Wings. The 25-year-old Swedish defenseman is averaging 18:48 time-on-ice and has 17 points (2G / 15A) in 47 games this season.
Roy did not play on Tuesday and will remain sidelined for Thursday's game against the Detroit Red Wings. The 30-year-old defenseman is averaging 20:46 time-on-ice and has 14 points (1G / 13A) in 53 games this season.
Brodzinski will draw out of the lineup on Thursday as the Rangers opt to get some fresh legs into their lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Brett Berard will dress in his place.
Holl played 73 games with the Red Wings last season, but has spent the entirety of the 2025-26 campaign playing in the AHL for the first time in nearly a decade. The 33-year-old defenseman has 10 points (2G / 8A) in 31 games with the Grand Rapids Griffins (AHL) this season.
With Logan Thompson (upper body) out of the lineup, Lindgren will tend the twine for the Capitals on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings. The 32-year-old Lindgren had a poor showing in his previous outing, allowing six goals on 40 shots (.850 SV%) in a 6-5 loss to the Edmonton Oilers. The loss was the most recent in a string of unreliable performances for Lindgren, who has allowed three or more goals in seven consecutive games (2-3-2), posting an ugly 4.08 GAA and .876 SV%. The Capitals enter the action on Thursday as +115 road underdogs against a Detroit Red Wings team coming off a 3-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings, snapping a five-game point streak (4-0-1).
